Jin Chen, President, Chinese American Chamber of Commerce
Integrated solutions are tailor-made for each individual client and project. We work with you to manage multiple stakeholder expectations across countries, facilitate cross-cultural communication and provide linguistic support, and leverage our network to bring in additional resources as needed.
Some areas we excel in:
- Subject matter experts training or consulting for companies between the US and Asia
- International investment projects
- Asian companies establishing branch offices or subsidiaries in the US
- High-level events, delegations, and exchanges
